Southern - 10 members; 9 football teams
SWAC - 12 members, including FAMU & Bethune-Cookman; all 12 play football

What are the likely/possible home for the remaining MEAC members?

Coppin State - D2
Delaware State - NEC
Howard - Big South
UMES - ASUN
Morgan State - NEC
Norfolk State - Big South
NC Central - ASUN
SC State - ASUN
The Big South already has 12. If the ASUN goes after any, they should have football (ASUN big South agreement) and be relatively close to other ASUN schools, (Howard and Norfolk State would be okay, not the rest.

If the Big South goes past 12 schools, they need to be extremely close to the bulk of Big South schools, (basically in North and South Carolina) I know Norfolk is close, but how many schools can the Big South take? Then you start loosing NCAA money.

Delaware State may be trying a push to the NEC? All I've saw is rumors on that, nothing concrete.

The rest, in my opinion would be better suited in D2.
